Flashing seatbelt light

[skipgen]

Had something weird & random happen today.... The fasten seatbelt light began to flash (no chime). At a stop it would quit, then resume over 15 mph or so. It finally extinguished itself after I shut off the car while getting gas.

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

Something on the front passenger seat? Normal behavior if so. No belt chime.

The seat can sense a phone or even a few sheets of paper sometimes.

Strange - it was just my lunch bag. Which has made the trip many times. I did decide to latch the passenger belt right before the gas stop as well.... Perhaps you’re right.

Same thing happened to my '15 Ultimate. I had some library books on the passenger seat and the seat belt lamp on the center panel lit up.

I also fastened the passenger seat belt to make it go off.

This has only happened once in 3 & 1/2 years.

Like I said it was pretty strange - it seems to have gotten a bit more sensitive. It's not like I've been carrying more lunch!

Did it again this AM... tossed the bag on the floor and it went off. Ghost In The Machine, I guess.
